Bug description:SplFileObject constructor make $context optional / give it a
default value
Description:
------------
When extending from SplFileObject and overwriting the constructor, it is
not
easily possible to override the parent one because for the last parameter
$context
one can not provide an optional default.
Therefore it requires (somewhat needles) if-branched code only to deal with
the
$context not passed case when calling the parents constructor.
It would be nice if $context does accept NULL then if I do not want to use
any
context but need to specify the parameter.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
class Myfile extends SplFileObject
{
public function __construct($file_name, $open_mode = "r",
$use_include_path = FALSE, $context = NULL) {
$this->levels = new Levels();
parent::__construct($file_name, $open_mode, $use_include_path,
$context);
}
}
$file = new MyFile(__FILE__);
Expected result:
----------------
It should not give any warning or error.
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: Missing argument 4 for Myfile::__construct(), called in [pointing
to the
line "$file = new MyFile(__FILE__);"] and defined in [pointing to the line
"public function __construct($file_name, $open_mode = "r",
$use_include_path =
FALSE, $context = NULL) {"]
